Darth Maul Inspired Paint Job on Luke

After I stripped the Boba Fett paint tryout, I wanted to see this color scheme.

Is calibration working?

Running calibration tests on Centauri Carbon 2 + Elegoo Basic PLA via Elegoo Slicer. Flow rate and temperature results, these can't be true right? I should be seeing more variance

PS the back side of the flow rate test has these lines on the wall, not sure what that's about?

Because I have commitment issues, I was looking for ways to not damage the chrome finish of my Luke V2. So I just sprayed a black primer, bought some Dark Iron metallic paint and Dark Rust effect paint and went for it. I also really wanted to try having the chrome finish to shine through a scuffed up paint. There are some minor things I need to finish painting, but I'm pretty happy with its character and the effect it gives.

The pain(t) will definitely flake away with wear and tear. So it will eventually turn back to chrome, but only partially... and I feel that's the most exciting part about it, seeing how naturally and quickly it changes with use.

But, seeing how this was easy, I want to strip it off and start again with different ideas :D Lemme know what you think and if you have any tips. I haven't used a brush in forever.
